Mandatory Covid Vaccines for Premier League players

[davek]

It is madness, the reason being is that people have died or become seriously ill from having the vaccine.

My wife and I have been double jabbed and luckily have had no side effects, unfortunately, people we know have either had family members become ill with life changing effects, or in one case has died.

The irrational part is when people feel that they can force vaccines upon other people, without consequence as to what reaction that persons body might have from the said vaccine all because they were fine when they had it.

The rational thing to do would be to bring in protocols to limit the spread of covid, with regular testing being carried out. You can still spread covid even after having the vaccines, so having them does not mean you would not have to be tested; much like we have to be in my workplace.

The number affected adversely is statistically low. An irrelevancde in the grand scheme of things. Obvioulsy it's a tragedy for the infinitesimally small number who are badly affected, but we are dealing with a pandemic that has killed over 4 million and serioulsy affected the lives of tens of millions.

Yes, there should be more testing and suppression, but we need that AND vaccine uptake.

The thing is that our medical records have always been a personal-private piece of information and now everyone is talking about them that casually, all of sudden. Everyone should be responsible for each other for sure, not spreading any disease of whatever kind. However, those things being actually private, I don't think anyone shows any respect when talking for or against vaccinations in a forcing way.

Talking like an absolute self-touted expert when people of both sides, vaccinated or not, have suffered from different things (covid-19 itself, or side-effects of the vaccine) is at least disrespectful. Nobody can force anything on anyone, not even an opinion. So I would advice you to be more polite when talking about stuff like that. We're not doing a greater good when creating divisions in a really difficult time. Self-imposed apartheids are a scary concept, in the scary times we are all living in.

Can you prove the 4 milllion died from COVID ?? Definitely ... not from either exisitng conditions that were exasperated. Or, people died from the effects of shutting down society, eg ambulances not attending incidents of chest pain in usual time frame etc, cancer issues etc. (above yearly average) ?? If those people had a postitive covid test and died WITHIN 28 days FOR ANY REASON they are marked down as a 'covid death.' Statistaicallu low you say - it's very difficult to report vaccine deaths/issues as 'vaccine deaths', far more hoops to jump through than a 'covid death'.

Yep. In some American states at least, those Listed as a COVID death even if the alternative cause was CLEARLY not Covid. Were still listed as a Covid death.

It's selfishness, plain and simple. Hearing heartbreaking stories in the news of people about to be put on a ventilator asking for the vaccine and being told it is too late... healthy adults in their 20's and 30's. People like Delph need to wise up.

Do you still wear a mask after being double jabbed??

 

[big nev lookalike]

Nobody should be forced to have any vaccine.It is down to personal choice.I know people of my age group who have refused the vaccine,however I have told them that due to my low immunity I will not socially interact with them because of their decision.
With regards to Delph,firstly its his choice but putting that statement out is crass and stupid.If the FA or Premier League made it mandatory then it is down to him whether he has the jab or accept that he will not be allowed to play pro football. If it was mandatory then players contracts would have to be amended to take this into account.

I do.

 

[JLW]

I do.

Why mate?

 

[big nev lookalike]

Why mate?

My immune system is buggered due to a liver transplant and I'm on waiting list for kidney transplant so doing everything I can to stay safe.

Sorry to hear that mate

No one is forcing them to be vaccinated. Just saying that they shouldn't be allowed to play if they don't.

There is no human, inalienable right to be a Premier League footballer.

There are so many different things you can use in this example.

A person who doesn't drink alcohol, going out with their mates, isn't allowed out, because they don't drink too? A person can't play, if they're not vaccinated? Rubbish.

Ultimately a person has a right to do what they want to do, if Delph or any other football choose not to have a vaccine, then that's their decision. They've got enough doubts and concerns to not take it, like someone may have by not taking it.

It's nothing to do with being a Premier League footballer, it's their basic human right.

I don't think you should be allowed to force or even coerce players (or anyone) into getting vaccinated, however, if I owned Everton, anyone who refuses a vaccine would be on the transfer list straight away.

 

[Nymzee]

I honestly thought they'd be vaccinated by now.

 

[big nev lookalike]

Sorry to hear that mate

Thankyou,appreciate that.

And in some countries, people who have died from Covid have their cause of death listed as something else, or not at all.
